Definitions

  • This invention is directed to peptidomimetic compounds and pharmaceutical compositions containing the peptidomimetic compounds, and the use of the peptidomimetic compounds or compositions thereof in the manufacture of a medicament for inhibiting protease, particularly serine protease and more particularly hepatitis C virus (“HCV”) NS3 protease.
  • the peptidomimetic compounds, as HCV NS3 protease inhibitors, are particularly useful in interfering with the life cycle of the hepatitis C virus and in treating or preventing an HCV infection or physiological conditions associated therewith.
  • the present invention is also directed to the use of the peptidomimetic compounds or pharmaceutical compositions or kits and pharmaceutical packs therefor in the manufacture of a medicament for combination therapy for inhibiting HCV replication in cells, or for treating or preventing an HCV infection in patients.
  • included as pharmaceutical compositions are those comprising an inhibitor of HCV serine protease in combination with an interferon having anti-HCV activity; an inhibitor of HCV serine protease in combination with a compound, other than an interferon, having anti-HCV activity; or an inhibitor of HCV serine protease in combination with both an interferon having anti-HCV activity and a compound, other than an interferon, having anti-HCV activity.
  • the peptidomimetic compounds may be prepared using stereoselective methods for preparing chiral bicycloprolinate intermediates useful in the synthesis of the peptidomimetic compounds.
  • the HCV is thought to infect chronically 3% of the world's population [ A. Alberti et al., "Natural History of Hepatitis C, J. Hepatology, 31, (Suppl. 1), 17-24 (1999 )]. In the United States alone the infection rate is 1.8% or 3.9 million people [ M.J. Alter, Hepatitis C Virus Infection in the United States", J. Hepatology, 31, (Suppl. I), 88-91(1999 )]. Of all patients infected over 70% develop a chronic infection that is believed to be a major cause of cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. [ D. Lavanchy, "Global Surveillance and ContrXol of Hepatitis C, " J. Viral Hepatitis, 6, 35-47 (1999) ]
  • the replication of the HCV encompasses genomic encoding a polyprotein of 30 10-3033 amino acids [ Q.-L. Choo, et al., "Genetic Organization and Diversity of the Hepatitis C Virus", Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 88, 2451-2455 (1991) ; N. Kato et al., "Molecular Cloning of the Human Hepatitis C Virus Genome From Japanese Patients with Non-A, Non-B Hepatitis", Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 87, 9524-9528 (1990) ; A. Takamizawa et al., "Structure and Organization of the Hepatitis C Virus Genome Isolated From Human Carriers", J.
  • the HCV nonstructural (NS) proteins are presumed to provide the essential catalytic machinery for viral replication.
  • the NS proteins are derived by proteolytic cleavage of the polyprotein [ R. Bartenschlager et al., "Nonstructural Protein 3 of the Hepatitis C Virus Encodes a Serine-Type Proteinase Required for Cleavage at the NS3/4 and NS4/5 Junctions", J. Virol., 67, 3835-3844 (1993) ; A. Grakoui et al.
  • NS3 the first 181 amino acids of NS3 (residues 1027-1207 of the viral polyprotein) have been shown to contain the serine protease domain of NS3 that processes all four downstream sites of the HCV polyprotein [ C. Lin et al., "Hepatitis C Virus NS3 Serine Proteinase: Trans-Cleavage Requirements and Processing Kinetics", J. Virol., 68, 8147-8157 (1994) ].
  • the HCV NS protein 3 (NS3) contains a serine protease activity that helps in the processing of the majority of the viral enzymes, and thus is considered essential for viral replication and infectivity.
  • the essentiality of the NS3 protease was inferred from the fact that mutations in the yellow fever virus NS3 protease decreases viral infectivity [ T.J. Chambers et al., "Evidence that the N-terminal Domain of Nonstructural Protein NS3 From Yellow Fever Virus is a Serine Protease Responsible for Site-Specific Cleavages in the Viral Polyprotein", Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 87, 8898-8902 (1990) ]. More recently, it was demonstrated that mutations at the active site of the HCV NS3 protease could completely abolish the HCV infection in a chimpanzee model [ C.M. Rice et al.
  • HCV NS3 serine protease is also considered essential for viral replication as it and its associated cofactor, NS4A, help in the processing of all of the viral enzymes. This processing appears to be analogous to that carried out by the human immunodeficiency virus (“HIV”) aspartyl protease.
  • HIV human immunodeficiency virus
  • the demonstrated use of HIV protease inhibitors as potent antiviral agents in man demonstrates that interrupting a protease protein processing stage in the viral life cycle does result in therapeutically active agents. Consequently, the protease enzyme is an attractive target for drug discovery.
  • the present invention relates to compound or pharmaceutically acceptable salts and prodrugs thereof, solvates of such a compound, its salts and its prodrugs, and or pharmaceutically acceptable salts and prodrugs thereof, solvates of such a compound, its salts and its prodrugs.
  • the invention is also directed to a pharmaceutical composition

  • cytotoxicity of these compounds has no significant effect on HCV RNA accumulation in the Replicon Assay within the precision of the assay because such cytotoxicity occurs only at HCV serine protease inhibitor concentrations significantly greater than those tested in the Replicon Assay.
  • Combination therapy employing HCV serine protease inhibitors of the present invention possesses several major advantages over single drug therapy.
  • HCV serine protease inhibitor such as CU at the IC 95 level could be combined with a dose of interferon alpha, for example at the IC 50 level, and the result would be much more effective therapy than could be achieved with the HCV serine protease inhibitor alone without the adverse side effects caused by high doses of interferon alpha.
  • a second major benefit of combination therapy is that because the two drugs act independently, there is less chance of development of mutant HCV strains that resist treatment. Development of resistance is a major concern with RNA viruses like HCV. Because of their high rate of mutation, such viruses can rapidly adapt to environmental stresses.
  • a third benefit of combination therapy may be reduced cost, due to the need for lower amounts of therapeutic agents required for effective treatment.
  • Additional immunomodulators that can be employed in the methods disclosed herein include, for example, alpha interferon 2A, consensus interferon, tau interferon, interferon + Ribavirin (Rebatron), pegylated interferon, and promoters of interferon gene expression. It is fully anticipated that the anti-HCV activity of these compounds will be improved when used in combination with HCV serine protease inhibitors such as those disclosed herein.
  • HCV serine protease inhibitors will also be active in vivo , and more importantly, be capable of eliciting synergistic activity when used in combination with interferons, immune system stimulators thereof, or other compounds having HCV antiviral activity that act by a mechanism other than inhibition of the HCV serine protease.
